No bad surprises
Run before published
Every route is run, mapped and verified before it goes live — and dated, so you know how fresh the information is.
Honest, both ways
We never undersell a brutal climb or dress an easy route up as an adventure. If we say it's runnable, it is.
Everything you'd ask a mate
Where to park, where the water is, where the climbs bite, where to bail if the weather turns.
The TRP Grade, in ten seconds
Two scores: Effort (E1–E5, distance + climb) and Terrain (T1–T5, what's underfoot). The higher one sets the label. A flat 40km towpath and a technical 8km fell route are hard in different ways — one number can't tell the truth about both.
A gentle introduction. If you run at all, you can do this.
A solid run. Comfortable for anyone running weekly.
A proper outing. Bring food and water.
A big day. Fitness and planning required.
Means something when we say it. Mountain experience essential.
